Time for another thought leader interview on eDiscovery Today! This time, I’m interviewing Dave Ruel of Hanzo and Billy Blau of Asana!

Dave is the VP of Product at Hanzo and Billy is the Head of Business and Corporate Development at Asana. Last week, Hanzo announced that it has joined Asana Partners as a Technology Partner, bringing enterprise-grade eDiscovery, investigations, and compliance solutions to the Asana application.

Dave, Billy and I discussed that announcement, as well as trends in collaboration, eDiscovery of collaboration data, enterprise solutions in the cloud and more. Specific topics included:
